Ito International Research Center (IIRC) symposium, The University of Tokyo
“Perspectives of the physics of nuclear structure”

The physics of nuclear structure presents a notable progress in recent decades through the exploration and the understanding of new features in nuclear structure, including “neutron halo” and “island of inversion” as well as more recent development such as “shell evolution”, “ab initio approaches”, etc. These are obviously due to developments, experimental as well as theoretical, on and with rare isotopes or exotic nuclei. Its interdisciplinary applications are also developing.

This symposium will be devoted to discussing such recent achievements and further perspectives in the physics of nuclear structure, with a slight emphasis on the developments of the shell model in the past and future. The utilization of high-performance computing will be discussed. The scientific program is composed of invited and contributed talks and poster session.
